This disclosure is provided to members/consumers according to the provisions of the Federal Electronic Fund Transfer Act. As used in this Disclosure, the words “we”, “us”, or the “CU” refers to Services CU and to the CU named in the cuCheck Card/ATM Card Agreement. The words “you” and “your” refer to the member/consumer (and joint account holder, if any); the word “card” refers to your cuCheckCard/ ATM Card issued to you. The word “terminals” refers to automated teller machines and point of sale terminals. Please read this disclosure statement in its entirety.
1. If you believe your card has been lost or stolen or that someone has transferred or may transfer money from your account without your permission, call your CU immediately or if after business hours, call 1-800-325-3678.
2. Summary of Your Liability for Unauthorized Electronic Funds Transfers: Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your card has been lost or stolen. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down. You could lose all the money in your account plus your maximum overdraft line of credit (if any).
If your Visa check card is lost or stolen, your liability for unauthorized Visa transactions with the card, other than transactions at an ATM is $0. The provisions of this paragraph do not apply to unauthorized use of your Visa check card at an ATM. They also do not apply if you were grossly negligent in the handling of your account or card.
If we determine that the unauthorized use situation involving your Visa check card is not covered under the previous paragraph or if the unauthorized use involves your ATM card your liability is determined under this paragraph. If you believe your card has been lost or stolen, and you tell us within 2 business days after you learn of the loss or theft, you can lose no more than $50 if someone used your card without permission. If you do NOT tell us within 2 business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your card, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using your card without your permission if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500.
If your statement shows transfers that you did not make, tell us at once. If you do not tell us within 60 days after the statement was mailed to you, you may not get back any money you lost after the 60 days if we can prove that we could have stopped someone from taking the money if you had told us on time.
If a good reason (such as a long trip or a hospital stay) kept you from telling us, we will extend the time periods.

4. Our Electronic Fund Transfer Services: You may use your card to make the following electronic fund transfers:
a) Withdraw cash from your share draft or share account

5. Limitations on Electronic Funds Transfers:
Transactions at terminals, you may withdraw up to $500 from automated teller machines.
Transactions at financial institutions and merchants, you may use your card for up to the amount of your morning transmitted balance in your checking account each day in non-terminal transactions (purchases and cash advances) at financial institutions and merchants accepting VISA cards, unless you have been specifically advised that a different limit is applicable to your transaction amount.
For purposes of this section, Saturday, Sunday and holidays will be considered one day. For security reasons, there are limits on the number of transfers you can make using your card.
6. Summary of Your Right to Receive Documentation of Transfers: Periodic statement–You will receive a monthly account statement if there are any electronic fund transfers during that month. In any case you will receive a statement at least quarterly.

However, there are some exceptions. We will NOT be liable, for instance:
a) If, through no fault of ours, you do not have enough money in your account to make the transfer;

e) If the terminal was not working properly and you knew about the breakdown when you started the transfer;

9. Charges for Electronic Fund Transfers: You will be charged $1.00 for each pin base withdrawal in excess of 4 per month. The CU will not charge a fee for signature-based transactions. When you use an ATM not owned by us or visit a POS merchant, you may be charged a fee by the acquirer.
10. Other Terms & Conditions: The exchange rate for transactions in a foreign currency will be a rate selected by Visa from the range of rates available in wholesale currency markets for the applicable central processing date, which rate may vary from the rate Visa itself receives, or the government mandated rate in effect for the applicable central processing date plus the 1% International Transaction Fee.

We may also take up to 90 days to investigate your complaint or question if the transfer was initiated at a point of sale terminal or initiated outside the United States.
